What is the culture like in your area. In Austin area it was back in 2014 a culture of competition and legitimacy. Many pretentious attitudes and punitive environment. Arriving on the Mexican border it was a breath of fresh air. The medicine is a bit antiquated but the environment is real trust and teamwork. Fire Departments in general are more cohesive and I think collective bargaining and civil service status creates a culture of poor discipline and quality.
How do we get past a competitive environment to build real team work and accelerate the career.
What are the goals of EMS?
Integrated healthcare I think is a dumb idea, sorry. We should focus on implementing new technology/capabilities. Billing for ISTAT, ultrasound and other emerging technology will help us more than building continuity with hospitals and clinics, because most calls we can not provide anything more than a ride and continuity, change that and we can accelerate the career.
